Wallpaper - Crossing

Our Crossing wallpaper brings a quiet wildlife moment into focus, capturing an adult brown bear and cub pausing in the sparkling shallows of a flowing river. Designed by Nathan Larson, the composition balances the rich saddle brown tones of the bears with the clear, reflective movement of the water and soft green foliage framing the background. We produce our mural wallpapers made to measure, printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle paper structure, giving this natural landscape an expansive yet intimate presence on the wall.

In the room

Because Crossing is a scenic wildlife wall mural with clear central subjects, we think it works best on an uninterrupted feature wall where the full river composition can unfold without heavy disruption. In a living room, placing this wallpaper behind a low sofa allows the bears and the horizon to remain completely visible. In a bedroom or study, it creates an earthy, grounded focal point behind a bed frame or writing desk. The design carries enough visual depth to suit medium to larger rooms, but it can also bring a sense of openness to a cosy home office or den when positioned opposite the doorway.

Styling it

We recommend pairing this design with furniture that echoes its grounded, natural character. Simple warm timber pieces, such as oiled oak or rustic pine, harmonise naturally with the rich brown tones of the bears without fighting the detailed landscape.

To keep the room feeling balanced and open, we would opt for relaxed woven textiles in muted oatmeal, soft taupe, or unbleached cotton for curtains and upholstery. Keeping surrounding patterns minimal allows the flowing river and textured wildlife imagery to remain the focal point of the interior.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is defined by deep saddle brown, earthy umber, cool aquatic blues, and soft forest greens. To build a cohesive palette around it, we suggest using warm off-white, light pebble grey, or gentle stone on adjoining walls and painted woodwork. If you prefer a richer, more enveloping feel in a study or living area, a muted moss green or warm clay tone drawn from the landscape will tie the entire room together naturally.
